The editors strongly encourage authors who are interested in submitting work for potential publication in Zoological Research to send a presubmission inquiry prior to any formal manuscript submission. All presubmission inquiries should be sent via e-mail to zoores@mail.kiz.ac.cn.
Information in the presubmission inquiry should include: 1) an abstract, 2) the title, 3) the full author list (names and affiliations for corresponding author and all co-authors), and 4) a cover letter specifying the significance of the current study. The authors are also encouraged to include the entire manuscript in their presubmission inquiry as this would be helpful for the editorial office to have a thorough evaluation.
Regarding review articles, additional information should include: 1) a list of the most recent reviews on the topic and 2) a brief statement highlighting the distinctiveness of your review.
The editors shall provide feedback within 48 hours. In the event of a positive response, you will be invited to submit your manuscript online @: https://mc03.manuscriptcentral.com/zr.
